"Proves Hilary Duff is here to stay. Is it corny at times? Definitely, but sometimes corn is good for you."  ReelTalk Movie Reviews  Betty Jo Tucker

D-
"Simple earnestness is one thing, but this film makes Touched by an Angel look like David Mamet."  FilmJerk.com  Brian Orndorf

2.5/4
"So pure at heart that, even with its over-the-top moments and cliches, one is willing to forgive the flaws and admire all that it achieves."  TheMovieBoy.com  Dustin Putman

1/4
"10 Reasons Why You Should (Or Shouldn’t) See Raise Your Voice..."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

D
"It has no spark, no wit, and no purpose other than to convince the world that Hilary Duff is a celebrity. I wasn't buyin' it 19 months ago, and I'm not buyin' it now."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

1/4
"In watching the anemically manipulative Raise Your Voice, one wouldn’t mind calling for a touch of well-needed laryngitis."  Movie Eye  Frank Ochieng

D
"One has to suspend disbelief to an almost incredible degree to swallow any of this movie."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

1.5/5
"This film is nothing more than a series of cliches strung together with a lot of shots of Hilary Duff in tight tank tops."  7M Pictures  Kevin Carr

B-
"As refreshing as it may be to see Duff shed tears, drop the 'like' and wear shirts that don’t show off her midriff, this is more of a baby step than a giant leap forward."  Countingdown.com  Larry Carroll

C-
"Duff’s sunny disposition makes her a likable movie presence, but I’ve yet to see anything from her...beyond a 'let’s put on a show' high school drama club enthusiasm."  Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema  Mark Pfeiffer

"Oh, the comparisons just come so easily: Like Coyote Ugly, only sillier. Like Crossroads, only sickening-sweeter."  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

C
"Duff has more hairdos than facial expressions, but the movie is designed around the one she has down pat, a sort of sweet "I don't know I'm adorable" sort of look."  Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies  Nell Minow

1/5
"flavorless... unappetizing... torture"  Filmcritic.com  Sean O'Connell

3/10
"Hilary Duff finds "Fame" amid this tepid, tremulous fluff, aimed specifically at 'tweens."  Modamag.com  Susan Granger
